Ayva tatlısı

Salads, Dips, Sandwiches and Fermented Cold Dishes

Ayva tatlısı is a dessert from Turkish cuisine made with quince. According to the English Wikipedia article, the quince is cooked either by boiling in water or in the oven with cloves and sweet syrup, then filled with apple or quince meal and raisins and topped with kaymak, or with ice cream. It is often served as halves with the inside slightly carved out, and it is eaten warm or cold across Turkey, particularly in winter. The article does not date the dish or name a place of origin within Turkey, so this entry records only the ingredients, the cooking methods, the serving style and the seasonal habit that the source gives.
